What problem does it solve?
This Skill standardizes the creation and maintenance of Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) so that major technical choices are documented, engine-compatible, and traceable to GDD requirements and the architecture registry.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured ADR authoring: Drafts complete ADRs with numbered filenames, Status, Date, Engine Compatibility, Alternatives, Consequences, and Validation Criteria.
- Retrofit-safe edits & validation: Detects missing sections in existing ADRs, appends required fields without modifying existing content, and updates Date as needed.
- Cross-checks and reviews: Loads engine reference docs, flags post-cutoff risks, spawns engine specialist and technical director reviews (per review mode), and proposes safe registry updates while surfacing GDD sync warnings.
- Use Case: Choose between physics engines or networking approaches, generate ADR-0005 with engine checks, get specialist feedback, and append new stances to the architecture registry after approval.
Quick Start
Run the architecture-decision skill with a concise title like event-system-architecture to create a new ADR draft, validate engine compatibility, and prepare registry candidates.
